£880,000 Comic Relief Investment to be available in Northern Ireland

 

The Community Foundation for Northern Ireland is delighted to have been  appointed as an Intermediary Grant Maker on behalf of Comic Relief. 

 

The Community Foundation for Northern Ireland and Comic Relief both believe in the importance of

 

•           Directly investing in communities

•           Lived Experiences of people in shaping and improving lives is key in shifting the power.

•           Partnering with others who have greater experience, knowledge and connections

•           Adapting to change learning from lived experiences;

•           Influencing future policy and programmes from a lived experience perspective.

 

From these shared perspectives the Community Foundation for Northern Ireland will over the next two years invest £880,000 of support from Comic Relief across four strategic development areas as follows:

•           Children Surviving and Thriving:

•           Global Health Matters:

•           Fighting for Gender Justice:

•           A Safe Space To Be:
